People who love their dogs are the most kind and giving people on this earth.
We are the ones who don't freak out because our dogs give us a kiss or eat off our plates.
We don't leave our dogs out in the heat or the cold.
And when we lay down our heads at night, our dogs are on the bed
or snuggled close by, safe from that which roams around at night.
We love all our dogs, those we have had in the past and especially those we have now.
Like and share if a dogs unconditional love has made your life better some how.

General Appearance
The first impression of a good German Shepherd Dog is that of a strong, agile,
well muscled animal, alert and full of life. It is well balanced, with
harmonious development of the forequarter and hindquarter. The dog is longer
than tall, deep-bodied, and presents an outline of smooth curves rather than
angles. It looks substantial and not spindly, giving the impression, both at
rest and in motion, of muscular fitness and nimbleness without any look of
clumsiness or soft living. The ideal dog is stamped with a look of quality and
nobility-difficult to define, but unmistakable when present. Secondary sex
characteristics are strongly marked, and every animal gives a definite
impression of masculinity or femininity, according to its sex.

Shepherd Dog Temperament
The breed has a distinct personality marked by direct and fearless, but not
hostile, expression, self-confidence and a certain aloofness that does not lend
itself to immediate and indiscriminate friendships. The dog must be
approachable, quietly standing its ground and showing confidence and willingness
to meet overtures without itself making them. It is poised, but when the
occasion demands, eager and alert; both fit and willing to serve in its capacity
as companion, watchdog, blind leader, herding dog, or guardian, whichever the
circumstances may demand. The dog must not be timid, shrinking behind its master
or handler; it should not be nervous, looking about or upward with anxious
expression or showing nervous reactions, such as tucking of tail, to strange
sounds or sights. Lack of confidence under any surroundings is not typical of
good character. Any of the above deficiencies in character which indicate
shyness must be penalized as very serious faults and any dog exhibiting
pronounced indications of these must be excused from the ring. It must be
possible for the judge to observe the teeth and to determine that both testicles
are descended. Any dog that attempts to bite the judge must be disqualified. The
ideal dog is a working animal with an incorruptible character combined with body
and gait suitable for the arduous work that constitutes its primary purpose.
